About Elana James
"Her fiddle...evokes memories of the wizardry of Stephane Grappelli and the magic of Johnny Gimble....Special, original, and a true treasure. Listen." -Fred Foster, Producer, Founder, Monument Records "What fiddling!...and a beautiful voice." -Laurie Anderson "Elana is one of the sexiest, most talented musicians. Her style hints of another era...taking you places you thought were unreachable by today's standards. And yet, here she is…" -Raul Malo, The Mavericks "[Elana's] throaty violin solos arrived in terse, epigrammatic phrases with a sprint, every so often, into chromatic harmony. She also sang in a breathy, un-self-conscious voice that made every double-entendre seductive." -Jon Pareles, New York Times "A beautiful voice, a fantastic musician, with the heart and soul of an angel." -Willie Nelson
